Clinical Care

Located in the Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU, our pediatric unit is a microcosm of the Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery – we treat the same broad spectrum of ear, nose, throat, head and neck conditions, just in younger patients.

Our fellowship-trained pediatric otolaryngologists treat patients with both common and complex conditions, such as:

Airway abnormalities
Allergies
Ear drum perforations
Facial paralysis
Hearing loss
Head and neck cancer
Neck masses
Obstructive sleep apnea
Recurrent nosebleeds
Recurrent ear infections
Swallowing disorders
Tongue tie
Vascular malformations

We're proud to collaborate with health care providers across a multitude of specialties — including pediatrics, neurosurgery, gastroenterology and pulmonology — to provide care for our patients and their families. This includes several multidisciplinary clinics such as cleft/craniofacial, aerodigestive and pediatric voice.
